Then event will take place in the college’s main building, located at 221 S. Quarterline Rd.
Attendees can learn about expanded free tuition opportunities, meet with college faculty and staff, and explore career and educational pathways. Admissions, financial aid, academic departments, counseling and advising will be available to answer questions about the college’s more than 70 areas of study and 20 athletic programs.
“Enrolling in college can be intimidating, so we designed this open house to make learning about MCC as easy as possible,” said MCC Director of Admissions Sarah Luker. “It’s an amazing opportunity to see our beautiful campus, meet people from every area of the college, and have all their questions answered in one place.”
Attendees also will have the opportunity to enter drawings for several prizes, including Apple AirPods Pro 3, a MacBook Neo 13-inch laptop, an Apple Watch, a Samsung Galaxy Watch 7, Beats Solo 4 wireless headphones and a soundbar with wireless subwoofer.
No registration is needed, and the event is open to the public. Attendees will receive a complimentary MCC t-shirt and free pizza will be provided. (While supplies last.) The raffle is open to anyone in attendance; however, winners must be present at the time of the drawing.
